Mrs. Taylor heard Mrs. Brown’s insulting remarks and frowned. She replied angrily, "No matter what Anna did. She is still more suitable to be Daniel’s wife and our daughter-in-law than your daughter. At least she won’t leave Daniel and run away when anything happens to Daniel, like your daughter did in the past."
Mrs. Brown was petrified to hear mother Taylor speaking in Anna’s favor and said in a flattering tone, "Dear Mrs. Taylor, we have known each other for so many years, and you also know that I am talking about Daniel’s good, right? This little girl is arrogant and impolite. The things she did outside may leave a bad impact on the reputation of the Taylor’s family."
It was clear that this woman came here to make trouble for Anna.
She targeted Anna directly, and Anna wasn’t a person who can let herself suffer silently.
But the woman in front of her was many years older than her and that’s why she didn’t quarrel with her, after all, she knew that she won’t get any benefit from this quarrel.
So, Anna smartly took the opportunity to prove herself innocent and said to mother Taylor in a very aggrieved appearance, "Mom, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to create trouble, but what Miss Brown said was really too much and hard to bear for me."
"Too much?" As soon as Mrs. Brown saw Anna’s appearance, she felt even angrier. "It was you who poured water on her publicly and now you are even blaming her? How are you so shameful?"
Mother Taylor was naturally inclined on Anna’s side. She asked Anna, "What Isabella did?"
Anna said sadly, "Mom, when sir was not well before, Isabella Brown always despised him. Whenever she saw him in a wheelchair, she always said something harsh to him. Now, he has recovered and Miss Brown came to me yesterday and said….."
Anna paused.
"What did she say?" Mother Taylor Asked anxiously.
Mrs. Brown sat by and watched Anna squeeze out a few tears from her eyes. Anna seemed pitiful, and her fingers were tightly pulled together.
If Mrs. Taylor wouldn’t be here, she would have caught Anna and had a fight with her.
